In a televised interview, the Premier recalled the fact that one person was killed every three days on average when his government took office in 2013.

“Crime has declined more than ever before in history of the country. This is definitely a tragic event. Some 110 to 115 murders were averagely committed each year when we took office or a person was killed every three days. The homicide rate has hit record low now and is declining progressively,” the government head said asked about the security situation in the country after the roadside shooting in Shkoder, where a passerby was killed.

“The fight against crime goes on, yet the murder rate has kept declining every year since I took office,” PM Rama said.

Asked about the encrypted communications via the Sky and Encrochat platforms, PM Rama said it is up to the rule of law enforcement agencies to look into this case.
